In my app after they press an on screen button. In the listener I do some check to see if they win. When they win i set a boolean like so:
button.setOnClickListener( new View.OnClickListener()
{
#Override
public void onClick(View view)
{
/** check some things **/
aWin = true;
}
}
I am wondering. Where does the code go after the onClick. Am i suppose to call the function in the onClick?
I have looked everywhere for an answer, I am very new to android programming.
If by "the function" you mean a funcion that you have developed, then Yes, you should call whatever function you want to execute in the onClick method.
For example:
button.setOnClickListener( new View.OnClickListener()
{
#Override
public void onClick(View view)
{
/** check some things **/
aWin = true;
//Example
this.informUser(aWin) //Call your function here
}
}
If by "the funcion" you mean the onClick, then no, you shouldn't call it, Android OS should do it for you.
Where does the code go after the onClick. Am i suppose to call the
function in the onClick?
It depends on what you do in the onClick.
For example :
button.setOnClickListener( new View.OnClickListener()
{
#Override
public void onClick(View view)
{
/** check some things **/
aWin = true;
}
}
In your code above, the code will stop at aWin = true;.
Now lets say you want to go to another Activity after a click happened :
button.setOnClickListener( new View.OnClickListener()
{
#Override
public void onClick(View view)
{
/** check some things **/
Intent i = new Intent(this, AnotherActivity.class);
startActivity(i);
}
}
The onClick will end when your apps go to another activity.
UPDATE
Lets say you want to "refresh" your TextView after a click happened :
button.setOnClickListener( new View.OnClickListener()
{
#Override
public void onClick(View view)
{
/** check some things **/
aWin = true;
if(aWin)
myText.setText("WIN");
else
myText.setText("LOSE");
}
}
Feel free to comment if you still have some questions (although no guarantee i can answer it) :)

I've been trying to find out the back navigation button to lead to another activity.
Every time when I pressed the back button, it goes to the previous activity which is not what I want. I would like to set the back button that goes to another activity I want, instead of previous one.
For example, I have Activity 1, 2 and 3. I was in Activity 2 and just moved to Activity 3. But when I press the back button, it goes automatically to the previous activity which is Activity 2. I want to make it to Activity 1 and not Activity 2. Can anyone suggest me a solution please?
You can make the button to go to a specific activity, instead of having the default behavior that you described.
It can be something like this:
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent intent = new Intent(Activity2.this, Activity3.class);
intent.putExtra("variable", information); //this is optional, but can be useful if you need to send a specific info to the next activity
startActivity(intent);
}
Activity 2 is parliamonar, and Activity 3 is federalparliamentary. I replaced parliamonar with Activity 1, but it still didn't solve the problem.
public class federalparliamentary extends AppCompatActivity {
Button federal;
private Object parliamonar;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_federalparliamentary);
federal = findViewById(R.id.back160);
federal.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent reserve = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), parliamonar.class);
startActivity(reserve);
}
});
federal = findViewById(R.id.next164);
federal.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent reserve = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), sar.class);
startActivity(reserve);
}
});
}
public void onClick(View V) {
Intent back = new Intent((Context) parliamonar, federalparliamentary.class);
startActivity(back);
}
}
public class federalparliamentary extends AppCompatActivity {
Button federal;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_federalparliamentary);
federal = findViewById(R.id.back160);
federal.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent reserve = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), parliamonar.class);
startActivity(reserve);
}
});
federal = findViewById(R.id.next164);
federal.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent reserve = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), sar.class);
startActivity(reserve);
}
});
}
public void Onclick(View v) {
Intent intent = new Intent(federalparliamentary.this, politicalsystem.class);
startActivity(intent);
}
}
Activity 1 is "politicalsystem".
I added with #Override method, but it says that I have to remove the method, so I added outside, then it says that I have to extract interface, so clicked on it, then it gave me a bunch of list. So I chose onClick(v:View ):void, but it still didn't solve the issue. I tried in another way without #Override, but nothing changed when I tested my app. I also tried inside onCreate method which did not modified the navigation as I desired.
Is it possible to define the source of a click? I can access my MainActivity through either clicking on a RecyclerView or through a Notification action. Depending on which it is, I need to provide different info. Is there a way of saying: if click is from recyclerview then..., else if it is from notification action then...?
What I can think of so far is this, but the problem is I am not using buttons as such:
Button mClickButton1 = (Button)findViewById(R.id.clickButton1);
mClickButton1.setOnClickListener(this);
Button mClickButton2 = (Button)findViewById(R.id.clickButton2);
mClickButton2.setOnClickListener(this);
public void onClick(View v) {
switch (v.getId()) {
case R.id.clickButton1: {
// do something for button 1 click
break;
}
case R.id.clickButton2: {
// do something for button 2 click
break;
}
}
}
Thanks!
you have to define two different calling intents for the same activity and put info for each View Example :
mClickButton1.setOnClickListener(new onClickListener(){
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent view1_int = new Intent (this, MainActivity.class);
view1_int.putExtra("Calling Intent" ,"RecyclerView");
startaActivityForResult(view1_int);
}
});
mClickButton2.setOnClickListener(new onClickListener(){
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent view2_int = new Intent (this, MainActivity.class);
view1_int.putExtra("Calling Intent" ,"Notification action");
startaActivityForResult(view1_int);
}
});
and in the onCreate Method in your MainActivity you can say :
String callin_view;
callin_view =getresources.getIntent.getExtras("Calling_Intent");
This will retrieve the name of the calling source you defined
Don't know why this error is coming. I have used the same logic of adding #Override in my previous apps (Which I learned from Udacity).
I'm currently doing the Multiscreen Apps course. Do let me know if anyone else have completed this course or having the same error.
Here's what I wrote:
//Find the view that shows family category
TextView family = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.family);
//Send a clicklistner on that view
family.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener()
{
#Override //here's the error
public void onClick (View v){
// create a new intent to open the {#link FamilyActivity}
Intent familyIntent = new Intent(MainActivity.this, FamilyActivity.class);
// start the new activity
startActivity(familyIntent);
}
});
Thanks,
Kvaibhav01.
Did you try this?
family.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View arg0) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
});
As I remember textView doesn't have onClickListener, it has onTouchListener and maybe this's a problem
I am new to programming in Java, i've managed to create a little calculator as a little test app.
But i think i am using way to much code for my needs.
So i've given a Button a name: buttonname
Now to change it's text when clicked i need to:
public class MyActivity extends Activity {
Button buttonname;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_my);
buttomname = (Buttom) findViewById(R.id.buttomname);
}
public void buttonnameOnClick(View v) {
button1.setText ("NewText")
}
}
(i've bolted everything i had to add)
So i had to do everything above + connect the buttonClick through the xml file.
So i was wondering if there is a easier way to define all objects so i dont have to do: Button buttonname; and buttomname = (Buttom) findViewById(R.id.buttomname); all the time.
And i was wondering if there is a easier way to auto create button events.
(I am used to Visual Studio, but now i am kinda lost in Android Studio. So on Visual Studio i just had to double click the button and type: buttonname.Text = "NewText";)
There is a library called Butter Knife to do approximately that
However, I'm not sure if you really need it.
Oh, and you don't have to find the same Button every time. You find it once in onCreate and store in a field.
First of all you have typo in
buttomname = (Buttom) findViewById(R.id.buttomname);
It should be
buttomname = (Button) findViewById(R.id.buttomname);
and you forgot ; in one line "didn't your IDE show error to you!!" and also small correction in
public void buttonnameOnClick(View v) {
button1.setText ("NewText")
}
it should be
buttomname.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
buttomname.setText ("NewText");
}
});
inside protected void onCreate.
2nd method:
And if you have define android:onclick="buttonnameOnClick" in XML then
public void buttonnameOnClick(View v) {
button1.setText ("NewText")
}
To be corrected to
public void buttonnameOnClick(View v) {
buttomname.setText ("NewText");
}
You can do it in a loop if you have a lot of identical buttons to process
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_my);
for (int btn_id : new int[]{
R.id.buttomname
, R.id.buttomname2
, R.id.buttomname3
}) {
View v = view.findViewById(btn_id);
if (v != null) {
v.setOnClickListener(onClickButton);
}
}
}
//
private View.OnClickListener onClickButton = new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View view) {
// .. handle click
if (view.getId()==R.id.buttomname2){
}
}
Your code is partly correct,
however the
(Buttom) is wrong change it to (Button)
the other thing
public void buttonnameOnClick(View v) {
button1.setText ("NewText")
}
can just be changed to:
public void buttonnameOnClick(View v) {
Button buttonTemp = (Button)v;
buttonTemp.setText ("NewText");
}
Assuming you are calling the method from layout xml file.
you must use the onClickListener() method for Button object.
Your code like this structure;
buttonname = (Button)findViewById(R.id.buttonname);
buttonname.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
// Perform action on click
}
});
I recommend to your visit Button | Android Dev page for Button.
I know my question might be stupid but I am new in Android App development and the Eclipse things but reached to e problem that can't find solution in internet.
I am making multi-activity application and reached to a point where when i have two buttons in one of the activities and want each of them to lead to different other activities, the application crashes. When I lead them both to one activity, everything is fine. Here is my code and hope really my question not to be so stupid as I am thinking.
public class Home extends ActionBarActivity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_home);
Button myButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.tables);
myButton.setOnClickListener(goToTables);
Button mySecondButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.reservations);
mySecondButton.setOnClickListener(goToMenu);
}
#Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.home, menu);
return true;
}
private OnClickListener goToTables = new OnClickListener(){
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
doButton();
}};
private void doButton()
{
startActivity(new Intent(this, Tables.class));
}
private OnClickListener goToMenu = new OnClickListener(){
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
doSecondButton();
}};
private void doSecondButton()
{
startActivity(new Intent(this, Menu.class));
}
}
The goToTables works perfectly but I am missing something important to change in goToMenu. My other activities are: Tables and Menu. Can somebody please tell me where I am wrong? Thanks in advance!
android:onClick="dobutton" try adding this in your button tag in xml code rather then using onclicklistner.
Try changing the name of your Menu activity or add the full name path of Menu.class in your intent, eg. com.myapp.Menu.class
